one end with one end without. you might go fins, finless or stick to one w/ and one w/o. also, the search feature on this site is pretty decent in the forums.

Riding w/o fins teaches you how to use your rails properly.

Why do people care if a topic has been talked about twice?

I took my fins off to ride rails on my buddies river.. and never put them back on. sometimes behind the boat it would be nice to have them.. but over all i like the loose feeling of no fins. I hope that helps.

people care simply because this is a dead debate. for a long while it was a hot topic over the legitimacy of riding finless. now that it's established that finless riding is the same as fins it gets old when all you have to do is go to forums, search, and type in the word "fins" or start off by saying your too lazy to sift through all the results you may get on a given search.

by twice i meant more than once.. who cares if it has been talked about 38 times?

Why dont you guys just explain to me why its a big deal? Does it back up the site, making things run slower?? if so that would make sense, and I would agree with you guys.. or if there is another reason please let me know.. Im not looking for a pissing match. really just curious.

Kenny, a buddy of mine just got a new mutiny and i told him to try it without fins for a bit before he drills into the board… first time on it finless he hated it, but after about 3 or 4 rides on it he loves it and doesn't plan to put fins on it now. so no drilling needed
